Association, meeting, Thursday eve- ning at the Elementary. Building. He used as his topic, "What'. Hap- pening To Our Schools". Hestated That a, serious teapher- shortage threatens our schools. Last year (1951-52) for the first time since S1947, our school authorities in Some counties experienced diffi- culty in finding teachers. This year (1952-53) many counties experien- ced difficulties, and some have not Syet been able to attract enough qualified people to staff their schools. When the preschool con- ference opened in August only sey- en counties had complete staffs for this important planning stage of the school's program. Almost 600 vacancies existed in the other 60 counties. Not since the 1940 war years have superintendents had such dif- ficulty finding qualified people to teach Florida's children. Business, industry and government service are actively competing for the ser- vices of college trained people and they offer more attractive salaries to beginners than Florida's county schools can offer. He brought out the fact "that unless more of Flor- ida's counties are able to pay high- er teacher salaries to meet the competition of other states and of private industry, Florida cannot ex- pect to attract and hold a sufficient number of qualified teachers to man its classrooms". Teaching is the heart of the learning process. Florida cannot ha ve an educational program which will be rated,among the best without a corps of competent teach- ers. Without good teachers we can- not have good schools. Mr, Stevens read a portion of the brochure put put' by thue Florida Educational Association which rec- ommends that Florida must pro- vide sufficient beginning salary to enable those trained for teaching to accept teaching positions with- out economic loss; have salary schedules high enough to be suffi- ciently attractive to young men and women to cause them to be willing to enter the teaching pro- fession and high enough to be at- tractive to young men and women to cause them to be willing to en- ter the teaching profession and high enough to be attractive to those already in the work in Flor- ida; set up incentives for advanced training sufficient in amount to make teaching attractive as a life- time occupation; have a retire- ment system stable enough to guarantee reasonable security to the individual after his years of active service. Only by providing these things can Florida assure its present and future citizens that their children throughout th'e state will have the benefit of the kinds of schools the people have said re- peatedly they want. Tom Owens, County Supreinten- dent introduced the speaker. Mu- sic was conducted by Miss Norma Jean Lewis and the devotional was given by Rev. W .L. Lindsey.

Three boys at the high school had made themselves troublesome to the teachers for some -time by cutting up in class, skipping classes and other means of disobedience. The high school principal, H. 'W. Ayers had chastised the boys in various ways but it seemed to do no good and was upsetting the school in various ways. The boys just shoBved no respect for authority; they were problems, and according to principal Ayers, their parents didn't seem to try to do anything about it or see that the boys behaved 'themselves. Things got so bad-that the-principal finally ETAOIN SHRDLU Iby ESLEY R. RAMSEY Well goddy goody gumdrop, our ranting and .raving about these: ill-, egal liquor sales on Sunday has finally paid off. One of the main sourcess of supply of Sunday liquir -was picked -up by the State' 'mii Sunday, 'two weeks ago, and char- .Zed with the sale of whiskey after hours. Maybe justice isn't quite so -dead as a lot of people thought. Buck Griffin showed us a stack at lottery tickets about she-high the other day, that he had liberated from a pusher that he had arrest- ed. Even at ten cents a ticket, there was enough there to amount -ap to-quite a piece of change. 'They sure made a nice fire, too. Did .you know that the only charge 'the local policemen can stick to a 'person they pick dealing in lottery is "vagrancy"? There is no law on the city books allowing an arrest -.s a person dealing in lottery. "Alligator Rufus", down at Apa- laehicola, has finally come up with an idea that we like. He expounded last week on the subject of the legislature passing a law requiring each automobile owner in the state to carry liability insurance. A bet- iter thing could not happen to the state. If an auto driver, runs into .someone or something and causes damage, he is automatically out a lot of money he doesn't have or a kind and benevolent soul offers to bear the cost of his own repairs. -We think it is a good idea for the legislators to work on. Require each motorist to carry a 5-10-5 lia- Ibility policy or be able to post $10,000.00 bond imifiidiately on a moments notice. Personally we -wouldn't drive without liability in- surance. SWe wonder also when "Alliga- tor" is going to acquire the intes- tinal fortitude to put his name' on lis. murmerings? If the man.isn't men. (or wbmhn)' enough to let asi name be, signed'to: what.,he or she thinks, they ought to keep their big rimuth' shut. W. often wondered why the stat-'of Wi c6balf "vbted for Sen'- ator'McCarthy,-hut- thetlother:- diy ye -'ere of the opinion, just for had to expell the boys from school in.order to get peace for the other children and the teach- ers and get their classes running normally again. Apparently, the boys didn't "cotton" to this so they just got together last Thursday night andtook a little-ride to discuss their mis- treatment at the hands of the school officials. Evidently boast led to 'dare and the boys began to get a little hot under the collar, the More they discussed that thing. As a climax, the -boys went over to Monu- ment Avenue, which:is being',renovated and "borrowed" a flambeau and -proceeded to the Ayers'. abode and put the still flaming torch on the front porch and turned it over on its side so, that oil would run out of 'the torch arid run on' the porch floor to be set on fire -from- the torch's.wick. As luck would have it, the Ayers' had just retired and when the boys scratched off in their car, Mr. Ayers jumped up in the bed startled by the racket and noticed the shadow on the wall caused by the leaping flames. He ran out and kicked the torch off the porch and stamped the remainder of the fire out. Such actions as this-hints of 'misguided energy. It also hints, STRONGLY of a need for some sort of recreation or tfit killer for the young people that will keep them headed in the right direction as well as provide a means of working 'off that extra steam. This is not just a talking and tongue cluck- ing-matter. It is a matter demanding immed- iate action. This is only a taste of things to come. Are we going to stand idly by and watch our young people go down the drain, as far as , their usefullness-to society is,concerned? , the 'moment, that they had made a wize choice. The loud-mouthed Senator went about his business on the Q. T. and signed the coun- try of Greece up on the honor roll of countries that would agree to stop carrying shipments of goods for Red dominated, countries. 250 more ships that the Kremlin has to "liberate" somewhere or else go to the expense and' trouble of -building them. Good iold Greece; we hardly lift a fingeir for them and here they come through with flying colors on the right side of the fence. Then, we have all those other countries in Europe that have received billions in U.S. aid and they're still undecided as to which direction they will turn in. Oh, the irony of it all (and the waste). We see where the president is going to cut down on foreign aid, however. Bully for him, even if he is, a Republican. 'Here we had a birthday last week and forgot to mention it. We fin- ally attained the ripe old age of 26 after about 26 years of trying. We were also royally fed by our moth- er at a dinner Friday, March 20 (the day of days) and forgot to say a thing about it. Last Tuesday night the firemen all gathered down in the fire house and did a regular policing up job. The trucks were washed and the new truck polished and waxed and the station floor was scrubbed and everything was just spit and po- lish. And what was the first job we .were called. on after all this labor, why a messy woods fire of course. So the job was all to do over again this past Tuesday night. It's a funny sight on Tues- day nights to go by the fire sta- tion and see all, the dusty, grimy cars setting around out front and the men crawling all over the fire trucks polishing and shining where there was hardly a speck of dust to begin with. We.saw a funny thing the other day. We went down to Austin-Atchi- son'Company to'do a little adver- tising selling and Earl Atchison said, come back here, I want to. show you something. He ambled (riot walked) over to the suit rack and took down a brand :spanking new suit and herded us in the back room. He removed the pants-from TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY BY RUSSELL KAY' I had a rather unusual experience" the other .day when I was called on to appear as a character wit- ness for a responsible business executive who local law enforce- ment officers had been kicking around for the better part, of a week with apparently no reason other than the exercise of misplac- ed authority. I have heard frequent reports of shabby treatment received by out- of state visitors at the hands. of irresponsible constables and de- puties in Florida but this was the first time I had come face to face with such high handed action. My friend Lloyd J. Wavering, public relations representative of the Curtiss Candy Company of Chicago, who brought the famed six-pony hitch to this state for ap- pearances at the Orange Bowl, Florida State Fair, Florida Citrus Exposition and other events, drove to Sunshine Park Race Track at Oldsmar on Friday afternoon to see the races. Walking about the grounds he saw a ticket lying on the grass near the clubhouse and picked it ;up. Looking at it he saw that it was a winning ticket. Thinking that someone had either lost it or thrown it away not realizing its value he took it .to the cashier's widow and turned it in.. The man at the window asked him to wait a minute. Shortly, two officers came up and put him under arrest. They claimed he was trying to cash a "tampered" ticket. He ex- plained that he had found it and asked the man at the window if it was any good. Without further questioning they the hanger and "dumped them into a pail of water. Mentally we shut the door of the booby hatch behind himn as we noticed:the $45.00 price tag on the coat, but he just held those." pants under" water and grinned. After a bit he pulled the pants out and proceeded to dry them out. So help us, after they weti. dried, they 'looked as good as 'new. Razor sharp crease .and everything.

He might just as well have been ap- pealing to a flock of ,Egyptian mummies or members of the Rus- sian Secret Police. He remained in.. jail "incommunicado" from Friday afternoon until Tuesday morning when he was informed that the charge against him had been changed to "attempted grand larceny" and he was allowed to use the phone.

In the meantime, two represent tatives of his company had been Docwated Sit Cram E ti p -n trying frantically 'to locate him, The hotel management 'checked his room and found all his belong- ings just as he had left them.

To make the farce louder and fun- nier, the man who had taken Wa- vering into custody identified him- self as "Chief of Police" for the Sunshine Park Race Track.

HOSPITAL Eighteen Gulf County home dem- onstration club members from Wewahitchka, White City, Over- street, and Honeyville recently toured the new W. T. Edwards Tuberculosis Hospital in Tallahas- see from top to bottom. Mrs. James Guilford, county home demonstra- tion health chairman, planned and organized the trip with the help of the home demonstration agent. The club women visited the wards, the kitchen, the darkroom, the sun porches, the workrooms, auditorium, and later had a deli- cious luncheon in the hospital din- ing-room with Mrs. Princess Wil- son, supervisor of nurses as hos- tess. Of great interest to the women were the X-ray room, and dark rooms where they saw negatives of the patients' stages. of tuberculo- sis. During the visit Mrs. Wilson spoke to the group on -the care that is given patients, the equip- ment used and the average length of time the patients spend at the hospital. A Gulf County patient at the hospital was visited. The kitchen proved to be of much interest, too, to the group attending. Everything from the three huge refrigerators for the vegetables, meats, and milk pro- ducts to. the, special diet -kitchen was seen. The highlight was see- ing the trays being prepared for the patients. The pyrex dishes were first warmed, the food placed in them, and- a metal lid placed over them which will keep the food hot for two hours. Before leaving town the group enjoyed shopping in Tallahassee. Going on this educational tour were: Mrs. James Guilford and Mrs. Edna Hardy, Overstreet. Mrs. D. R. Hatcher and Mrs. Robert Daniels of White City. Mrs. Charles Whitfield, Mrs. Edna Davis; Mrs. William Roemer, Mrs. James Rish, Sr., Mrs. Retta Rish; Mrs. Roy Con- nell, Mrs. Ella. Glenn, Mrs. S. W.

CABBAGE IN MANY WAYS Cabbage is one of our Florida foods about which all good things can be said. It is abundantly grown . nutritiously-worthwhile, and deli- cious to eat raw or cooked. Just now cabbage is plentiful in Gulf County. So let's look at some ways to use this popular and plentiful vegetable. Raw cabbage can be served in many delightful ways. A wedge of crisp, clean, raw cabbage gives a pleasing texture and freshness to a meal and may serve as a salad. Shred or cut the cabbage just be- fore serving to keep maximum' food values. Many home-grown vegetables combine well with shredded cab- bage for salads. A few combina- tions that are good with sour cream dressing, mayonnaise or French dressing are: Shredded cabbage and roasted peanuts. Shredded cabbage, hard cooked eggs and roasted peanuts or pecans Shredded cabbage, chopped green peppers and nuts. Shredded cabbage, carrots and green peppers. Shredded cabba'e. celery, green peppers, and roasted peanuts. Shredded cabbage, green peppers and shredded raw beets. Oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, calomondrins, avocado and pine- apple each combine well with shredded cabbage. Do you cook cabbage too long? R should be cooked just until ten- der to insure a delicate flavor and to preserve the c'clur. Cook coarse, outside leaves separate from the tender, inner leaves to prevent over cooking the inner leaves. Shred or cut the cabbage head into eighths and cook in boiling salted water 5 to 10 nunnoes for the shied- ded and slightly longer for bhe more coarsely cut pieces. Tne strong odor and favor of cooked cabbage can be lessened by cook- ing the vegetable uncovered so that the offending od,:s can go off ir:o the vegetable uncovered so thit the offending odo::. can go off into the air. Cabbage may be cooked in a pressure sa-cepan in 1 te 2 minutes. When tender, season with butter or ba'JL. fat and serve hot.

CAMPUS INN News of Port St. Joe High'School By MARTHA COSTIN Juvenile Delinquency Everytime you pick up a .new.s paper there is some account of teen age crime. This is not restricted to larger communities, because even in our own community, just recently, we have had some. There must be a reason behind this crime and I believe that we have the so- lution, or at least part of the solu- tion. Port St. Joe is a rapid grow- ing community with many modern facilities, but there is no place for the teenagers to go. The places where they have been going, have been taken over by some of the adults who have made it indecent to go there any longer. I believe that the solution to the problem is in a recreation, center,, where the kids can go and play, get to- gether and read, a place strictly for teenagers where they may feel ........ Guest of Daughter Mrs. C. C. Taunton and son, Pierce of Savannah, Georga, :are the house guests of her daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Gaskin on Hunter Circle. Mrs. Taunton and son were former resi- dents of Port St. Joe. free to go at any time. Several attempts have been made to form recreation for one night a week, but that proved unsuccessful for several reasons. One reason was that it was only open one night a week, but we need something that is open at all times. We need a place where teenagers can meet under decent surroundings and en- joy clean, wholesome recreation. Some of you parents may say that when you were growing up that you made your own recrea- tion, you didn't need a special place to go. But did you ever stop to think that when you were grow- ing up that you could take a stroll in the woods or 'down a country lane. Now, everything is so modern istic that you can no longer do this. 'The teenagers of our city are willing to do all our share and more in obtaining a decent place for recreation. Are you behind us? ,.* ----(------ Switzerland which has no ocean port has growingg fleet of:.mer- chant ships plying the seas of the world. 8:00 p. m.-Evangelistic service.
